I need help understanding school aid offers.
I can assist you with this. Have you applied to multiple schools?
No, my son has.
================
How do we figure out the net price for each school he has applied to?
I can help you with that. Finding out the net price for each school helps you figure out which one will be the most affordable for your son.
What if the school he applied to doesn't list the cost of attendance on his aid offer?
He can ask the financial aid office for this information. Be sure that it includes the amount he will pay to the school directly like tuition and fees, and other costs(living expenses, supplies, and transportation).
Who can help answer questions about my son's aid offer?
Your son's financial aid office at his school can help you with this.
What if he needs to take out larger amounts of private loans at one school over another?
In this case, please pay special attention to the terms and conditions of the private loans, so you know what your obligations will be.
